Age 60 Aviation Rulemaking Committee; Request for Comments

In November 2006, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) will adopt an amendment to increase the "upper age limit" for airline pilots up to age 65 provided another crewmember pilot is under age 60. On September 27, 2006, Administrator Blakey established an Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC) on the Age 60 issue. One of its tasks is to recommend whether the United States should adopt the new ICAO standard. The FAA and the ARC are requesting comments from the public about whether the FAA should adopt the ICAO standard and any issues surrounding adopting or not adopting the standard.
